The ground pool level of the house features a game room, entertaining area, wet bar, and gym for the young family of five.

Park City Design + Build created this indoor/outdoor, energy-efficient home for a Danish interior designer and her family.

A Roman Clay covered accent wall behind the bed maintains the understated texture Rossi instilled throughout the home, and the new salvaged doors open to the front patio.

Rossi did not carry the dividing wall between the bedroom and living room all the way up to the ceiling, so as not to break up the treatment up there, instead designing the wall as a custom storage and display unit.

At the highest point of the property is a geodesic dome. “We use it as a secluded space for meetings with friends, yoga sessions, and just chilling after spending some time in the hot tub,” says Serge. “It’s filled with comfy rugs and pillows.”

The great room acts as a kind of fulcrum for the L-shaped house: the vaulted apex of its roof and ceiling, and a combined living-dining-kitchen space for the clients and their children to gather.

The built-in cabinet bench is original to the home, while Ginger’s low, clean-lined furnishings underscore, without distracting from, the incredible views.

Large windows allow the lush, tropical garden to become a focus of the interior design. Ginger replaced the previous bulky shades with a sleek, motorized, exterior shade system. “They are on a timer,” she explains, “so that they automatically lower in the late afternoon for about four hours.”

Just outside the kitchen's rear entry, Benjamin Hale Architects created a pergola that aligns to the ceiling joists that top the wash/prep area inside.

The garden room is finished in clay pavers whose gray hues evoke the kitchen cooking island's Cumbrian slate surface.

A series of folding doors separates the garden room from its namesake outdoor space.

The front garden area is terraced with custom Cor-Ten steel retaining walls with an oxidized patina. The plantings are inspired by the couple’s love for Palm Springs.

The original stair railing was removed, refurbished, and reinstalled.

New windows, lighter floors, and crisp white walls lighten up the interior dramatically. Greenery NYC also redesigned the courtyard, making sure to leave a decorative screen from the 60s in a nod to the building’s history.

It was important to ensure that the writer’s work space connect seamlessly with the rest of the apartment. The built-in shelving echoes the library shelves downstairs, and the white oak desk, designed by e.g. Projects, is consistent with the white oak cabinetry throughout. The top is wrapped in leather, in a nod to traditional writer’s desks.
